Most people need some preparation before they are ready for the workforce, and planning should
begin long before it is time to start a career.
Many high school students don't yet know what they want to do. High school is a great time to
start thinking about careers. Settling on just one occupation in high school isn't necessary, but
they should know how to explore careers and put time into investigating them and learning about
their skills and interests.
Understanding what you enjoy, what you are good at is the first step in exploring careers. It is
important to think about what you like to do because work will eventually be a big part of your
life. Once you have thought about the subjects and activities you like best, the next step is to
look for careers that put those interests to use. If you love sports, for example, you might
consider a career as a gym teacher, or a coach.
Another approach to identifying potential career interests is to consider local employers and the
types of jobs they have. There are many jobs in manufacturing and healthcare near the high
school. Talking directly to workers can help you get information about what they do. If you don't
know workers in occupations that interest you, ask people such as your parents, friends, or
teachers for their contacts. If job shadowing gives you taste of what an occupation is like,
imagine how helpful getting experience could be. Students can begin getting career-related
experiences in high school through internships, employment, and other activities. Completing
an internship is an excellent way to get experience. Internships are temporary, supervised
assignments designed to give students practical job training.
